(Penguin Pssst: This is a new page under construction. If you have difficulty seeing some photos in the posts linked below please know that I am working to figure out the problem that is somehow connected with Picassa. Hopefully all will be resolved soon.)

I have so many wonderful recommendations to share about places to take children, books we love, games we enjoy, delicious kid friendly food, fun crafts and activities that have engaged our children, that I am starting a new page that will make it easy to access the information from my blog. I can’t wait to see how this turns out. I hope it will be a wonderful record for our family and useful resource for others.

Gifts We Love

(to give and receive)

From Glittersweet Studios: this bag design company is owned by a fabulously talented bag designer who lives right here in Ballard. Her bags are made in Seattle and a portion of the profits are donated to local non-profits that support women and children. That’s a lot of amazing sweetness in a gift already!
